About

Provided by Cescon, Barrieu, Flesch & Barreto Advogados

Cescon Barrieu’s corporate/commercial Bahia department is the local leader on M&A transactions. Our regional importance is reflected on the fact that, although we work closely and fully integrated with the other offices (São Paulo, Rio de Janeiro, Brasília and Belo Horizonte), the current structure enables our North East team to provide full corporate service, independently and closely to clients and local agencies.

Our professionals have a thorough experience in sophisticated matters, not always available in the local market, having worked in landmark M&A, infrastructure and real estate transactions. Our list of clients includes multinationals, domestic and foreign corporations, investment funds, financial institutions, high net worth individuals and entrepreneurs.
